Maca Root… Get the Facts!

You may have heard about Maca, may have taken this product or encountered it as one of the ingredients of your favourite supplement or food, but did you know what’s really behind this product?

As it was cited on my previous article, “Meet Your Highness: The Maca Root from Peru”, Maca is originally grown in the highlands of Peru, specifically in the Junin Plateau at 14,000ft altitude; it grows in a volcanic soil region under harsh climate conditions… in fact, it is the only crop that grows in this area and that makes it unique!

A wild crop in the early Inca times is now organically farmed by the locals in this magnificent and forgotten place.
